A statue of George Washington covered in a Palestinian flag and keffiyeh (scarf), and pro-Palestine signs pro-Palestine student protests that has turned into a an encampment at George Washington University’s Yard in a protest movement that has spread across universities in the U.S, demonstrating against Israeli military action in Gaza and calling on their university to stop doing business with companies they see as supporting the war on Saturday, April 27, 2024. The police first tried to crack down on the small group of students protesting, but the move backfired, and the students have continued in their demonstrations, calling for a ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.during Photo by Ali Khaligh/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
